RESET-BP Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The intervention will use behavioral strategies (self-monitoring, goal setting, problem solving, social support, stimulus control), environment modification (sit-stand attachment), and proximal (activity prompter) and distal (text messages) external prompts to target a 2-4 hour/day reduction in sedentary behavior.
Group II: ControlActive Control1 Intervention
Participants randomized to the control condition will receive no intervention during the study. After the 3-month assessment, control participants will be provided with a wrist-worn activity monitor and will be offered the 3-month delayed intervention if desired to aid in retention and recruitment.
